How times have changed…most of us would’ve put waterfall out the entire squad after last season…now they’re saying he was excellent.

It’s always good to see other teams compliment you and I think they have a very balanced view. I’d have taken a point after the week we’ve had but always happy with three points.

The second opposition in a week to call us the champions-elect. That is really good to read/makes me so nervous going forward.

I was surprised by the crowd. See the table on p2 of that thread. Their biggest in the league for yonks. 4th overall biggest in the league. Only bigger one this century was against Aldershot (as were most of their other big crowds).

OK 900 we’re us, but 3500 of them is still good for this division.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

We are even boosting the home crowds of other teams. They can't resist the pull of the Mariners.

Woking's second-highest attendance this millennium, and fourth in their entire history. Not bad for a league game in October against a side 200 miles away.

and it should be 200+ on that figure quoted - Krsitine is adamant that there were 110 there and there are loads of reports of them giving up on scanning tickets and just letting people in

In the NLP today their manager said that he had no complaints as we are a good team.  

I read somewhere that we have the best stats for regaining possession.  We work so hard to do this.

The manager of our next league opponents Yeovil had some very scathing comments about his team:

“That was dross some of it.  The front four looked like children really and some players have slipped out of form.  It was a little alarming to say the least.  We were useless up front for 60 mins.  

We deserved the booing from the fans at the end.  It was just so weak and we were not comfortable having the ball and being brave.  First half it was like having a mouth without teeth.  It was soft.  We could not keep the ball in the final third.  I could have taken all 4 midfielders off.  We were weak”.

Was a tough game for our usual attacking outlets to get into, so full credit has to go to the entire defence who I thought were excellent. Without them yesterday we might well have not been in a position from which we could have won it in the 87th minute. I thought everyone worked incredibly hard but that the likes of Hunt, Fox and McAtee struggled to get time on the ball. Fantastic support again, great reaction to Clifton's goal. These day outs are an absolute pleasure right now. Also what a response to the defeat at Bromley. Three wins out of three since then, well done to the whole team. Every single player is stepping up right now.

Quoted from ska face
They were the biggest side I’ve ever seen, absolute freakshow, was like the team of monsters in Space Jam.

Yep, their number 6 made Waterfall look like normal sized. Absolutely huge team, who nullified our threat from corners just like Maidenhead did. In fact they were similar to Maidenhead defensively but perhaps didn't press us as well as they did but the flip side of that was that Woking were better on the ball and posed more of a threat.

I'm fairly sure there were more than that there.
